AKC Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Coelho makes a very good point in an interview with CBS news (I guess that is if we're to believe anything from them:) regarding the structure of their campaign organizations: “Here are two groups that have never gotten along and have fought, and it is a lot over money,” says Coehlo. "Because in the Democratic Party the consultants get paid for the creation and the placement of [advertising]. Republicans only pay you for the creation.” While it's admirable that Coelho recognizes the Republicans are better businessmen, why in the world wouldn't each Democratic candidate be at least enough in control of his campaign to dicate the terms of the consultant deals? Am I missing something here- it doesn't strike me that the Coelho statements are focused on just this campaign, but instead on national Dem campaigns in general?
